This is a French mandolin duet from a collection published in Paris around 1900. Of the 27 pieces in the book, ten have optional second mandolin parts, several of which I have recorded in the past. This simple Viennese waltz is another one.

1890s Umberto Ceccherini mandolin
1915 Luigi Embergher mandolin
